Canadian Passport Is Required For Traveling

Starting June 1, 2009, a U.S. law will require Canadians to present a valid Canadian passport to enter the U.S. by water or land. United States law already requires Canadians to present a valid passport to enter the U.S. by air. The Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) is a U.S. law that requires all travellers, including U.S. and Canadian citizens, to present a valid passport or other approved secure document when entering the United States. Apply for your Canadian Passport today to ensure you have it when you need it. Remember, the Canadian Passport is the recommended travel and identification document for all Canadian travellers.

Government of Canada recommends that Canadians travelling to any destination outside of Canada carry a valid Canadian Passport.
